- I set off avalanche above Wolf Creek pass on March 7th 2015. I am lucky to be alive. 3 minutes into video is when it happened. Be safe and pay attention to the conditions.

Legend says his buddy knew that was gonna happen.
😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Life can change in a minute, but I had to watch this for 5.
svtirefire best comment ever
Correction five minutes and ten seconds
English teacher: five what? Pringles? Be more specific
That’s 4 minutes I’ll never get back
Who would have thought it was going to slide??? It's not like it had happened TWICE before on the same hill
Idiots. My Brain hurts
"I knew that was going to happen." Then why ride it??
I am surprised that a previously chopped up slope didn’t stabilize. There must have been a layer of hoar frost down 2’ to give a definite slip line and the snowmobiles were only cutting up the top few inches
Thanks for having the guts to post a video where you and your group did multiple things wrong. I mean the thank you sincerely. A guy in my old riding group died 2 days ago in an avalanche, and it's coming up on 4 years ago that I lost 2 friends in one avalanche. (Sounds like I run with a dangerous crowd, but I know a lot of people, I've lived in a couple different states, and I'm both a snowboarder and a sledder, so pretty big pool of people) Why I thank you is this: if even one person who watches this and says "what an idiot, anybody could tell that was going to slide" then has the thought while they're out riding "what would the youtube comments on this gopro video be?" and then makes a better choice that saves their life or the life of someone downslope of them, then your poor choice will be redeemed.
that wasn't an avalanche, that was the mountain letting a wet fart go.
@rorschachh little avalance only, no dangerous one. The hill was not so steep
South facing rapid heating slope with signs of previous slide activity. 2 on the hill at the same time and then after all those mistakes you are wearing a 1000$ back pack designed for exactly what happened and you didn't pull the cord. You are one lucky guy to stay on top like you did. With that snow type it would have been like being buried in fast hardening concrete.
teamdirt158 Avalanche was very small and not really dangerous it was sloow as shallow avalanche soo.....
At 4:16 I counted 11 people on the hill... 12 if you count the guy filming.. It looks like a well used very public and quite decent and obstacle free place for learning...
Oh and it's a mountain I believe... Not a hill
spring avalanches are slow and heavy, look at the blocks, not that shallow. Enough to crush you if you are under.
Thanks for the share. It's always easy for us to critique when we are sitting safely at home with perfect hindsight. Glad you are safe.
Yeah, here are some guy who pretend to know everything slightly better. These guys better gonna shame themselves.
The guys who is talk bs and giving bad critique is the guys who have never seen an avalanche
@@olsen4real ya ever stopped to think that they haven’t seen an avalanche because they know how to actually ride?
You broke one of the most important rules, one on the hill at a time
It looks like there were two previous avalanches on the same slope and they're still ripping on it? This would be darwin candidate. I'm so glad noone was hurt though! Be safe and think out there.
And riding two at once:)))
This guy is the epitome of why sledders are the highest statistic of avalanche deaths! So many brutally obvious mistakes were made here and this guy didn't have a damn clue.
He was having a good time. He wasn't looking for Avalanche signs.
123Andrew, fuck urself :)
Grady King Isn't everybody having a good time right before they get in an avalanche? That is not a reasonable excuse.
That's why he's dumb
2 previous slides directly in front of him.
Thanks for sharing, you lived to ride another day! Go man go!
I love the attitude when he almost gets covered by an avalanche " wooh"
you didnt cause an avalanche. your friend did and he was safely out of its path. you should not have been following him, one man climbs at a time.
Agreed
Dude chill it’s still an avalanche
@@pompei8202 whaddaya mean chill ..I didnt see any hysterics??..he's stating the most basic mountain riding rule there is..and this dummy broke it....
@@pompei8202 The point is he shouldnt have been in danger in the first place
These things are lethal
Dont fuck with safety
Right, think about a whole group climbing at once and a huge avalanche occurs. All riders are stuck under snow and no one is there to save them.
Thanks to your vid I now know to keep climbing and let the snow get ahead of me when I tumble down.
Hey I think that one guy knew it was going to happen.
That's why you never have more then one person on the hill at the same time the next thing you want is trying to pick and choose which guy to find.
Looks like its time for some avalanche safety training. Everyone who plays in the great outdoors where avalanches happen should attend. Have fun be safe.
Not being a winter outdoors guy, even I could see that there had been 2 previous slides on that slope.
I don't ride but after seeing these videos I hope everyone stays safe out there
Avalanche rides look fun
+alexini5 until you are trap in them xD
Stupid
Crazy. You were smart to keep on the throttle as long as possible.
Thes is why people need to speak up when they're uncomfortable about something in the backcountry.The guy who came top to him after the slide said "i knew that was going to happen. That side went, that side went why wouldn't this one?" Thats something that should have been said before anyone ever rode there in the first place. Mistakes were made, but you're around to learn from them. Glad you're ok, could have been a lot worse! Nice job fighting through as much as you could at the top, way less snow to bury you!
Wow man! What a nightmare. You are a lucky guy. I'm surprised your machine didn't keep pulling. It looked like you were really close to the top of it.
That seemed like an calm-ass avalanche.
There were slides previously all over that place, y’all were lucky. Glad you made it out ok.
'I knew that was going to happen', Yet I continued to risk all I've got and all I'm ever gonna have. (William Munny)
Was that guy (the one who knew it was going to happen) riding the hill? I've been sitting in a group at the bottom watching others high mark on multiple occasions, watching in case there is an avy so I can help then.
2 guys climbing a 40 plus degree slope at the same time with a bunch of dudes chillin at the bottom...real smart. Take an Avy course. I'm sure your family would appreciate it.
martech360 waa,waaaaa
A testament to carrying a transceiver and knowing how to use it even on seemingly safe terrain.
Dylan H what seems like seemingly safe terrain when you are between 2 slides on the same slope??
good friends are lifes most precious stay safe
"Avalanche" at 3:20
he is a good friend man.
So happy your safe to go home to your family.
So the hill has, I think, four slides on it. But still you go up it. Your buddy says "I knew that was going to happen" but still let you do it without warning. Sheer, unmitigated stupidity and irresponsibility. If you want a Darwin award, you're doing excellent training for it.
He knew that was gonna happen.
El Chapulín Nocioni. ¡Ídolo!
No sabía que te gusta este esparcimiento.
SO TRUE BE SAFE OUT THERE!!!
High marking between two other avalanche debris fields... whodathunkit?!?
Avalanches though ultimately unpredictable. Are also very easy to spot as far as signs go. Sunny hillsides. Previous slides. Hard pack or powder on top of heavy ice shelf. Maybe wasn't a steep and deep chute but doesn't need to be to kill a guy
A reminder you have to lube the quick coupler on your air bag.
he clearly says that he knew that it was going to happen, SO WHY THE FUCK DIDNT HE SPEAK UP!!
IDIOT. TRULY!
I can assure both of you fuckwits that I live in a very large mountain region of Canada and riding two strokes is almost a second nature, no shit you can't hear voices over the sound of them, but you have to keep a close eye on each other to make sure no one gets lost or injured and before you ride on any hill you have to determine as a group weather it's safe or not and always wear a beacon, and if something feels off, flag them down and tell them about it!
Tincan Tuner this is the one I was talking about
Never ever climb 2 sleds on the same hill at the same time!
wow, way to ignore tons of red flags.
Baby avalanche. This vid cured my insomnia!
Haha right on
Snow was like 6 inches deep (powder not the total depth)
That looked like fun. Great life experience to live through.
You said the bag wouldnt pull, what is it? Some kind of saftey precaution?
удачи!! берегите себя!
Plot twist: they were trying to kill him
IT`S OKAY BECAUSE THAT GUY KNEW IT WAS GONNA HAPPEN
I know avalanches are deadly but this one looked funny lol
There's always 1guy who knew it was gonna happen!
You can see all the air push out and the snow sink and settle/solidify scary.
He should have trusted his instincts. Also don’t load a dangerous slope with two sleds.at a time. Couple lessons learned here.
Everyone can learn from each others mistakes.
Your one lucky guy
That looks fun
tip#74: turn off youtubes smooth motion
He knew that was gonna happen
it's a good thing you had 10 buds and a mellow hill
This is why I don’t go to the mountains fuck that I can have just as much fun up north
why did you keep going up when it was falling?????
Camera is very stable
I seriously think a 250 hp sled would’ve made it with the track speed. Honey I have to order these parts
more than one dude on slope at same time. super unsafe my man.
You mentioned that your bag didn't open, did you know why?
i thout we were going to get an avalanche of snowmobiles :(
so funny. that's what i thought.
Loving the emotional comments!
And your life changed over that? I could throw more snow in a ball!
I've seen first hand a major avalanche. This was nothing in comparison. Obviously they shouldnt have been on that hill, hopefully they respect it from now on because they can be a LOT bigger
Oh man.... you could see the shelf's that had already broken off... didn't anyone dig a snow pit?
How by any description is roaring up an obvious avalanche slope fun?
Already previous slides but hey... let’s keep climbing it
You guys are smart eh.. lol
I thought to see an avalanche out of snowmobiles... im a bit disappointed right now :(
Foolish to ride up behind him like that.
lucky guy!
You really asked for that one with the dumb decision to follow the other rider up rather than wait.
The a simple rules.. u broke it
And the first thing he says is: woah!
That will learn you!
changed your pants later?
Someone needs to teach these guys how to ride safely! Who rides two people on an avy facing slope? Come rent from us an we will teach the proper Avalanche safety riding technique!
Rent from whom?
Keep a eye on your buddies
Been there done that
Thats called a sluff on the west coast Canada, the tensile let go the energy, good to see buddy a ok........Now go clean out your shorts.
Hello! Is it possible to contact you over mail regarding this video? I would love to discuss getting permission to use the video in an educational production if possible. Greetings!
Trying to make it sound like it was a real avalanche
Highmarking has to be in the top ten dumbest things to do in the backcountry..
He's so handsome!
Life can change in a minute, if you’re doing dangerous shit.
You could see where it had slid in spots Eyes Wide shut!!!
Gee didn't see that coming.
all the smart-ass & know-it-all comments aside; Was there ANY risk of death here?
I'm not a mountain rider and IMO -thats no mountain) But it doesnt "look" like it was moving fast or very deep at all.
Just had a sledder killed in my town from an avalanche. 3 went out, only 2 came back
Why wouldnt your bag deploy?
At least you'll die doing something you love!
Idiocy is its own reward. Do it again!
Imagine if that was just pure cocaine
Never cut across an open faced mountain....
2 sleds climbing the same climb not smart boys hopefully lesson learned if not good luck to you
What a be otch , how did u not turn that sled around when snow started.
Your buddy set it off
Stopped that noise you were making.
Anyone else tip their head back the entire video?
Yes! As a matter of fact I did!
Trying to see a bit more than was offered.
wooo
